    You've got me leaning towards Freymiller. Can I ask why you like them so much?

    Reputation as very driver friendly.
    Long runs.
    Trucks equipped with amennities for driver comfort.
    Don't have to take another physical; they accept your cdl school physical.
    Read where the owner fired some office workers for not getting drivers home when they requested it.
    Just can't find negative about the company, which is unusual for a refrigerated outfit.
    One of my very first loads out of cdl school was a trip-lease load from Freymiller. I drove for a different company, but we got this Freymiller load. It was wool in huge bales and picked it up in California and took it to North Carolina to a textile mill.

    yup and they make u think your the idiot, sorry sir i didnt mention the windshield because i figured i would notice it if i were lookn out of it lol thats the kind of rubbish that im talkn bout, but like highschool just dumb yourself down and prepare to be another number. dont blame the truckin schools anymore than the school system, just rubbish to dumb everyone down, if you ever wonder why people are so dumb its because thats what the point of the system is, dumb u down and make u a number. be a good slave.

    Or leaks...

    In AZ you are required to check all fluid levels EXCEPT for fuel. Figure that one out...

    The cdl school I went to did the same thing.....their Pretrip was much more detailed than dot requires. About twice as much info. But that way you have a larger bank of information to draw from when the examiner asks you a question. For example, I was describing checking the engine oil level on the dipstick and the examiner asked what else I would look for on the dipstick...after thinking about it, I responded I would check for any contaminants in the oil. Seemed to satisfy her.
